Unable to add integration for Archer C2300 v2.0

[ColinRobbins]

Describe the bug Cannot set up the integration with an Archer C2300 v2.0.

The documentation does state v1.0, but I thought I'd try it.

I am reasonably experienced with HA development, so am happy to try and debug if someone can give me some pointers on what the issue may be.

So, I have tried the test library, using a web encrypted password…

router = TplinkC1200Router('http://192.168.0.1','xxxxxxx', Logger('test'))
router.authorize()

It appears following the call to authorise() the response to the POST contains no data. So, an exception is thrown in requests/models.py#977 trying to decode the JSON

Hi. So it looks like the authorization is different on your router. Would be great if you could add support for your router to the client

[ColinRobbins]

Any clues on how to try and work out what the authorisation may need? Is it a case of watching an authorisation in dev tools, and reverse engineering?
